The Randy Rogers Band, Gary Allan, Reckless Kelly and many more regional country-rock acts will once again gather on Memorial Day weekend for the Lone Star Jam, which moves to the grounds of Rodeo Austin this year.

The annual two-day festival, previously held at Waterloo Park and then on the LBJ Library grounds before moving east a couple of years ago, was at the Travis County Expo Center last year but will use the actual Rodeo Austin grounds this year to allow for “better parking access, more parking, nicer grounds, and access to permanent, indoor, air conditioned restrooms for VIP purchasers,” Lone Star Jam organizer Kevin Ream said via email. Shaded tent areas will double from last year’s 7,200 square feet to 14,400 square feet.
